Aluminium Lite Frame
The Cube Aim SLX FE features a lightweight Aluminium Lite frame, manufactured using Cube's Advanced Mechanical Forming (AMF) process and double-butted tubing to balance strength, weight and durability.
Its mountain bike geometry provides a comfortable riding position with stable, predictable handling, making it suitable for commuting, leisure riding and exploring off-road trails.
Internal cable routing keeps cables neatly protected inside the frame, while the tapered head tube contributes to steering precision.
The frame also features dedicated mounting points for the included accessories, helping make the Aim SLX FE a practical choice for riders who want one bike for different types of riding.
SR Suntour XCT 30 100mm Fork
The SR Suntour XCT 30 suspension fork provides 100mm of travel, helping absorb bumps and maintain front-wheel traction on uneven surfaces.
Its suspension design improves comfort and control when riding over rough tracks, forest trails and uneven cycle paths.
A remote lockout allows riders to firm up the suspension from the handlebars, reducing unnecessary fork movement when pedalling on smoother roads or climbing.
Shimano Deore/XT 12-Speed Drivetrain
The Cube Aim SLX FE features a Shimano 1x12-speed drivetrain, combining Deore shifters and cassette with an XT rear derailleur.
A 32T ACID MTB Pro chainset is paired with a wide-range 10-51T Shimano Deore cassette, providing low gearing for steep climbs and suitable ratios for maintaining speed on flatter terrain.
The Shimano XT RD-M8200-SGS rear derailleur features ShadowPlus technology, designed to reduce chain movement and improve chain retention over rough surfaces.
The single-chainring setup simplifies gear changes by removing the front derailleur, making it easier to select the right gear for changing terrain.
Shimano Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Shimano MT200/UR300 hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent stopping power and progressive braking control in varied weather conditions.
The bike features 160mm rotors front and rear, offering dependable braking performance for commuting, leisure rides and light off-road riding.
The hydraulic system provides controlled braking with relatively light lever effort, helping riders manage their speed confidently on descents and slippery surfaces.
ACID EX25 Wheelset
The ACID EX25 wheelset features durable aluminium rims with 32 spokes, designed to handle everyday riding and off-road adventures.
The tubeless-ready rims provide the option to convert to a compatible tubeless tyre setup, allowing riders to benefit from lower tyre pressures and improved puncture protection.
A Shimano FH-QC500-MS rear hub provides a dependable connection to the drivetrain, while quick-release axles make wheel removal straightforward.
Impac Smartpac 2.25-Inch Tyres
The Impac Smartpac 2.25-inch tyres provide a balance of rolling efficiency, comfort and grip across varied surfaces.
Their relatively wide profile helps absorb bumps and maintain traction on gravel paths, forest tracks and uneven roads.
The versatile tread pattern makes them suitable for riders who regularly switch between tarmac and light off-road terrain.
Integrated Lighting System
The Cube Aim SLX FE comes equipped with an integrated lighting system, providing additional visibility for commuting and everyday journeys.
A Shimano DH-3D37 front hub dynamo generates electricity as the wheel rotates, powering the lighting system without relying on a separate rechargeable battery.
This makes the bike particularly practical for regular commuting, as the lights are always available when needed.
Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1
The included Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1 provides a practical way to carry everyday essentials, making the Aim SLX FE suitable for commuting, shopping and leisure rides.
Its integrated design keeps the carrier securely positioned on the bike, while providing a useful platform for compatible luggage and accessories.
Full-Length Mudguards and Kickstand
The Cube Aim SLX FE comes equipped with mudguards, helping protect the rider from water and road spray when riding in wet conditions.
An integrated kickstand provides convenient parking when stopping during everyday journeys, while the included accessories reduce the need for additional upgrades.
Flat-Bar Cockpit and Finishing Kit
The CUBE Rise Trail Bar measures 680mm wide, providing a comfortable riding position with direct steering control.
Paired with a CUBE Performance stem, the flat-bar setup offers confident handling on roads, cycle paths and off-road trails.
A CUBE Performance seatpost and ACID Venec Lite saddle provide support for everyday riding, while the included CUBE PP MTB pedals complete the setup.
Built for Everyday Versatility
With its lightweight aluminium frame, 100mm suspension fork, Shimano 12-speed drivetrain and practical integrated accessories, the Cube Aim SLX FE is designed for riders who want one bike for a variety of journeys.
Its combination of mountain bike capability and everyday practicality makes it well suited to commuting, leisure cycling, forest trails and weekend adventures.
